In order to preserve and share DMQC knowledge for CTD data within the Argo community, one-on-one interactions are needed in addition to detailed documentation of methods. Therefore a DMQC Mentoring System has been set up so that new operators can reach out to a mentor of choice to learn more about DMQC activities in a personalised setting.
